We’ve Moved!!

But not too far.   We’ve moved to 139 North High Street, Musselburgh, EH21 6JE where all our phone numbers are still the same.  We’re opening officially at 4pm on Monday 18th December – come along and see the new premises and pick up some Christmas goodies.

We’re looking forward to being a bit more efficient with our resources – being attached to the music studio at 1 Fishers Wynd will be beneficial to everyone!

The shop will be open 4-8 on Monday

10-5 Tuesday – Friday and 9-5 on Saturday.  We’ll also be open 12-4 on Christmas Eve

Come and say hello!

NEW TUTORS  – photos to follow

We are shortly going to be introducing you to Sarah, Simon, Andy, Fiona who join the existing team of Anna, Paul and Sandie and in the very near future we hope to add Karolina, Richard and Ian to the portfolio

All of these incredibly experienced tutors are able to teach a variety of instruments and bring with them a wealth of knowledge and enthusiasm.  Grace Notes is proud to be able to offer the community lessons in

Flute, Clarinet, Saxophone, Recorder, Piano (and Keyboard), violin, guitar (bass, electric, acoustic & classical), ukulele, voice (variety of styles), drums and music technology and sound production.   

We’re still on the lookout for brass instructors as well as other stringed instruments and accordion.  If you have these skills to teach, or need lessons in these, don’t hesitate to get in touch.

It’s not too early to start thinking about filling those incredibly long summer holidays.  We have a range of classes and groups to suit a range of abilities, all done in a fun environment.  Please have a look at this flyer and decide what you’d like to try   Summer Holidays 2017

Then fill in a booking form and send it back to us.   That’s it    .summer holiday booking form 2017

Grace Notes continues to go from strength to strength and we are enjoying meeting so many new pupils and their families.  Lessons vary between 149 North High Street and 1 Fisher’s Wynd but don’t worry if you can’t remember where to come, we’ll find you!   We’re in the process of setting up a business mobile number so that we can divert the landline to that for emergencies.  Please be aware that the phone is not always answered – if there are pupils or customers in the shop so please leave a message and we’ll get back to you as soon as we can.

We thought you’d like to meet the team who can be identified with their musical lanyards and name badges!

EASTER HOLIDAY CLASSES 

Existing pupils should note that the timetable is suspended for the whole of the Easter Holidays but Julie and Paul will be available if you would like to book in for a lesson – just send an email to let us know.  julie@gracenotesmusselburgh.com

We’ve just taken over the lease of No 1 Fisher’s Wynd, Musselburgh and are very excited to be able to offer more classes, with more tutors, for more pupils.  Get in touch if you want any more information or if you would like to book.

Have you just been offered a place on a school music timetable – clarinet, saxophone, flute, trumpet……….

Would you like to try out the instrument before you commit to buying it?  Then look no further.  We now hire out instruments of all kinds so you can spread the costs and to make sure you are suited to a particular instrument.   More details from julie@gracenotesmusselburgh.com

Equally – you might be looking to take up an instrument again, or to start something new.  This would be a good way to try before you buy.  All enquiries welcome.
